Nothing

Nothing on my mind today that can settle into something coherent.  Just some thoughts that keep ebbing and flowing from time to time.  I was thinking about Faith, Hope and Charity and this feeling I have about those three that cannot be put into words at the moment.  I was thinking about ‘Duty’ and how … Continue reading Nothing

Surrender

I was reading about Jeremiah warning Zedekiah, telling him what the Lord God had said.  How Jeremiah explained that salvation was in surrender, something the king couldn’t understand.  Zedekiah didn’t surrender; he stayed in Judah waiting on the siege.  And I wondered, do I do the same? Do I try to save face and fear … Continue reading Surrender

For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast … Continue reading A Delight

My Soul

“It is well with my soul…” (Horatio Spafford “When Peace Like a River”) Do we have the humility to claim that statement? Pride often prevents us from accepting blessings. Does that sound odd to you? Wouldn’t you think that pride deserves accolades? Pride is boastful, after all, right? Pride puffs up, right? So wouldn’t blessings … Continue reading My Soul
